I'm finally working again. It's not piercing, but it doesn't suck either. I still miss piercing, I haven't pushed a needle in four months. that's longer than I've gone in four years.

This past weekend, I had my back cut. Not cut in the bad sense (though it does hurt like it right now), but had a large Day of the Dead piece cut into my back by the fantastic Dave Gillstrap.

It feels like road rash right now, sans the dirt and gravel.

That is awesome! I will make sure there is one set aside for you.
lavonne:
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!

Yeah. Sepia is the shit too. Then I can do some really deep stuff, like music videos about race, and like, make it so you don't know who's black and who's white.

That also reminds me of a movie. Have you seen The Delicate Art of Parking? Overall its an ok movie, but there's this one amazing "music video" scene, that if you've seen, you will remember for all eternity.

Holy crap, unemployment is no fun.

Life as I know it is completely over. Everything is completely changing.

My friend Lysa moved away this morning. Moved to Austin, Texas to get married. I'm going to miss her like mad.

Yeah, it really sucks. I find it a bit better when I sit and dissect the commercials though. Some of that shit is so ridiculous! Like the car scrubber thing that's exactly like an electric drill, but with a round pad on it. Cause it's so hard to use a cloth!! And pretty much anything made by swiffer! And pretty much all food commercials.

I will be designing it completely, so it will definitely have cool dates and random stuff in it. If you have any ideas at all let me know! I will probably be swamped.

Skin is itchin. I wanna get tattooed. Unfortunately I don't have a job and all the money I have is pretty much owed to some third party.

I need to find a job. I have a few ideas in mind. It seems like there's A LOT of places hiring right now due to the fact that it's September and all the kids are gone back...

Epson PictureMate. It's really awesome! If you want one that takes batteries you have to get the Deluxe with the preview screen. It's an extra $70 or something though.

Money, money, money.

Every single time I feel like I'm catching up with my debts, something else finds it's way into my life. I just fully paid off my camera ($1450 later...) and now I owe another $1200 to someone else.

Ya know, body piercing pays the bills, but not a hell of a lot more. It's not like I live any kind of swanky...

Do you think your shop will have some tapers to sell? I'm thinking of getting some for my septum. It would probably make things easier and I don't really want to go to a shop. I might just order off bme when I get some money though.

Still haven't talked to my mom. It's been about three weeks I think. I wonder what she's up to. I just don't want to call her and still have her expect me to apologize. I know that's what she wants, but that's not what she's going to get. I didn't do anything wrong.

Its days like this that really make me feel alone.

I'm back. It took a few weeks and I missed out on the wonderful deal that I was offered, but I'm on again.

And it looks like I've lost a friend. Nothing personal I hope... frown

Vernon was amazing, I wish I was still there. I think my absolute favorite part was being a water baby in Kal lake. If I could go swimming there everytime I have a craving for a cigarette, I'd have no problem whatsoever quitting.

I haven't had one in less than a day and I would probably have no problem ripping your throat right out of...

I didn't have the olympus yet.

If I had more money I probably would have. I was looking at getting a new lens, but then I got the Olympus so I couldn't afford it.

Taryn's gone for two weeks. I miss her like mad already and she's only been gone since last night. The next 16 mornings will be as lonely as this one.

As crappy as that is, I need to find things to occupy my time. I have a handful of books to read, a couple ideas for photoshoots I can do at home by myself, and...

All the beers must have been what did it for me. Even through a photograph I somehow knew that. You know I'm a sucker for drunk chicks.
lavonne:
yeah, that's about right. lol
